Chapter 15. Security Protocols and Technologies > Transport Security
Transport Security
This section covers the protocols used to secure the transport of data. These protocols provide data confidentiality for specific applications:
Secure transactions— E-commerce, financial, and business-to-business applications require part or all of the transaction to be encrypted with SSL.
VPNs— VPNs were introduced in Chapter 5. They create a secure communication channel from which Internet users can safely access the applications hosted in the Data Center. VPNs can be based on IPSec or on SSL.
Management— The protocols provide for the secure management of network devices and servers.
